Are we for or against it? This Rumble started with a head-to-head look at the pros and cons of expecting more people to participate in UX research. Then we broke out into small groups (not recorded) to discuss further. In general, the standard UX answer applies: it just depends. Watch the recording to hear the ideas and nuance of democratization.

Through the UXR Guild, Danielle Green and I created Research Rumbles as a forum for authentic discussion of UX research practices. The group will address a new topic each month. We will cover the most divisive or controversial issues in UXR. Folks are asked to stay open, get curious, and try on new ways of thinking, ala Brené Brown’s rumble style.
